Death —The following convicts were finally broo - ht up to receive the awful sentence of death, viz.:—Henry Geo. Williams, Edward Bowen, and Mary Ward, who were convicted of wilfully cutting, stabbing, and maiming iler sons, with intent to murder them. Mr. Chinch then made proclamation, after which the RECORDER, in a very solemn manner, addressed the trio in very pathetic and affecting language. Our limits will not permit us to follow his Lordship, but he observed that one of them had in a moment of disappointed love as he thought perhaps, employed a deadly weapon, which had nearly deprived the person of life he pretended to hold most dear. Another had cut the throat, or otherwise mal treated the woman he was bound to protect and love, be cause she fetched home from an alehouse carousal sooner than he wished ; and then he attempted to strangle her with a rope, by which he would have terminated her exist ence, but for the intervention of her hands between the cord and her throat. The female convict had also proved her self to be a person of violent passion ; melancholy, how ever, as these cases were, his Lordship wished them to con sider that they had yet a space left for repentance and tears, and, therefore, in a more favour'ablc situation than the unhappy victims they had attacked, and had very nearly hurried into the presence of their Creator, without a mo ment's opportunity to implore pardon for the errors of their previous existence. . 10, No. 13,711.

AEROSTATION EXTRAORDINARY SIR GRENVILLE TEMPLE'S NEW WORK: Now ready, in 2 vols., Plates, RAVELS IN GREECE AND TURKEY By Major Sir GRENVILLE T. TEMPLE, Bart. Saunders and Otley, Conduit-street, Hanover-square. WARWICK, MONDAY, AUG. 22.—A more than ordinary de gree of excitem en t h as b een cause d b y this election. yThe Tories did not expect an opposition, and when it was first an nounced, they affected to treat it as of no consequence. Now, however, they evidently consider it of consequence, and by their movements show that they are considerably alarmed, and are not so certain of success as the'y could wish. Several aides-decamp from head-quarters, the Carlton Club, have been sent down, and are exerting themselves to save the tot tering cause. Among others, the celebrated Tory ex-whipper in is said to have been observed in the borough. The nomination took place this morning in the Shire-ball ; and, although the Conservative candidate, when the show of hands was demanded, contrived to get a tolerably good muster of " itching palms," yet the honest hands of the unbought, unbiassed, and independent electors outnumbered them, and Mr. Hobhouse has been successful thus far in releasing the borough of Warwick from Tory domination, and the long. usurped power of the Castle. He states most positively that he is confident of success. After the writ had been read, and the usual forms gone through, The MAYOR addressed the electors, and claimed for the speakers a fair, patient, and impartial hearing. Mr. WISE came forward to propose a candidate to supply the vacancy in the representation of tho borough. The name of Canning was not unknown in the borough of Warwick, and in the person of the son he trusted again to witnes the bril liant and transcendant abilities of the father. The individual Who . he proposed to their notice was a gentleman of great re spectability and integrity, of great talent and distinguished attainments, "and whose principles were most conducive to the real welfare and prosperity of this great nation. He was a true friend to the Constitution, and a decided enemy to revolu tion and licentiousness, and would maintain inviolate the venerable institutions of the country, both in Church and State to the best of his ability. Upon these grounds, then, he should propose the Hon. Charles John Canning as a fit and proper person to represent them in Parliament.—(Cheers and groans.) Mr. GREAVIS seconded the nomination. Mr. TOMES (formerly the Member for the Borough) came forward to proposed H. NV. Hobhouse, Esq., and was received with loud cheers from his own party, and groans from the op position. He attempted several times to address the meet ing, but the only words heard were, that considering in his own mind that the principles professed by Mr. Hobhouse in his address to the electors were in accordance with those of the majority of the inhabitants of 'Warwick, he begged to propose him as a proper person to represent them in Par liament.

NIEETINGS OF CREDITORS TO-MORROW. J. Wright. jun. and Co, coal-factors, Trinity-square 1 at 12 R. C. Shepherd, ca rr i e r, Camomile-street ............................... 1 1 The following distinguished personages arrived here on Thursday afternoon by the splendid stam-ship City of Glasgow, Captain Robert Ewing, we believe principally on their way to their respective seats, after a very short and plea sant voyage:—The most Noble the Marchioness of Hastings, family, and suite ; the most Noble the Marquis of Douglas and Clydesdale ; Lord Stanley; Lord de Tabley ; Major Swineburne and Lady ; besides many other persons of rank and title. The vessel called at the Isle of Man, the Point of Ayre, and other places, on her way, and, notwithstanding this unusual delay, we understand performed her voyage to Greenock in considerably less than 20 hours, and the nobility and gentry on board expressed themselves very highly gratified, both with the elegant accommodation of the vessel, and the manner in which every thing was conducted on board. — .Scots Times, Dr. CONNOLLY, in seconding the nomination of Mr. Hob. house, regretted that they had not had the opportunity afforded them of listening to the observations of his respected friend, Mr. Tomes. Indeed he did not wonder at the anxiety evinced by their opponents to prevent that gentleman from being heard. There was a cause which might be supported by the words of reason alone; and there was a cause which could only be upheld by noise and brute force. He would not detain them longer, as it must be disagreeable to them, in such a noise and crowd, to listen to long speeches. He would merely add, that in returning Mr. Hobhouse they would act in accordance to the wishes of the majority of the people of England.—(Cheers.) Previous to Mr. Canning's addressing the meeting, Mr. nommen requested and entreated all his friends to give the Hon. Gentleman a fair, patient, and attentive hearing. Mr. CANNING then proceeded to address the electors. He hoped that his own friends, and the meeting generally, would take the excellent advice of his Honourable opponent, and give all parties a hearing. The present contest was one of prin ciples and not of persons. He entered upon it without en tertaining the slightest feeling of acrimony or hostility, and he trusted that the gentlemen on the other side were influenced by the same feelings. Acrimonious feelings would bring no additional triumph to the victor, and would not afford the least consolation to the vanquished.—(Loud cheering.) When his ho noura bl e opponent came i nto the town, he stated that he came to rescue it from the tyranny of the Castle. He (Mr. Canning) had been taunted with being the nominee of the Castle.—( So ycu are.) He would tell them, then, that an asserticn that any one could force them to elect as the ,representative of that borough whoever they choose to nomi nate was an insult to them, and not to him.—(Cheers.) If by nominee they meant to assert that his principles were the same as those of their late representative, who had so long and so industriously served them, and who brought to that service firmness of action, integrity of principle, a n d all those excellent qualities whi c h could adorn a man—if to have the same feelings as those entertained by that gentleman was to be a nominee, he was in that sense proud of being a nominee. The Hon. Gentleman who had seconded his opponent had eulogised that gentleman's address. Would his lion. Oppo nent allow him to as'; ltim one question ? He believed that his Hon. Opponent arrived on Wednesday—his address was not published till late on Thursday. With all due deference to his Hon. Opponent's experience in electioneering matters, in which he certainly bad the advantage o ver hi m , h e would ask him whether that was the usual course? Was it sanctioned at Finsbury, or was it observed at Bath ? They would all natu rally expect that he would freely and fully speak his own opinions before he ascertained what theirs might be. He wished to say a few words upon a subject which had caused much discussion throughout the country. He meant the new Poor-law Bill. He must first state that he certainly did not expect from a person who so warmly supported the present Ministers as his Hon. Opponent did, that he would have put forth a statement which contained so warm a condemnation of their pet bantling.—( Cheers.) It certainly would be amus ing if he were in the House of Commons, and Lord John Russell on one side of him, and his brother, Sir John Cam Hobhouse, on the other, to hear him repeat his condemna tion of that measure in the same terms in which he had ex pressed his disapprobation of it here : his (Mr. Canning's) opinion upon that Bill was this, he considered it cruel, oppres sive, and unjust, that power should devolve on any men to se parate a husband from his wife.—( Cheers ; some ono in the crowd, " And yet. Sir. Charles Greville voted for that clause.") He wished them joy of their Poor-law Bill. He could only say that for his part he would gladly see that clause an nulled. The political opinions of that party who supported his opponent differed widely from his. He begged most explicitly to tell them that his principles were those essen tially of Conservatism. He would uphold the institutions of the country; he admired its Constitution; he reverenced the Church ; and he was the friend but not the servile flatterer of the people.—( Cheers.) If any person wished to put any further question to him he was ready to reply to them. He thanked them for the impartial hearing they had given him, and begged that they would give his opponent the same op portunity of addressing as they had afforded him.—( Cheers. ) Mr. HOBIIOUSE next came forward to address the meeting amidst cheers and diapprobation. He said that as the cause for which they had assembled was their own cause and not his, or that of his Honourable Opponent, he would entreat them for their own sakes to give him a patient hearing. His Honour able opponent had told them that the present contest was one not of persons but of principle. He perfectly coincided with him ; he, however, thought that his speech was a direct con trast to the statement he set out with. As far as he could collect from his opponent's speech he had not told them his opinion upon any of the public measures. He should like to have heard him state his opinion to them on the subject of the ballot. Instead of that, however, or of giving his opinion on other public matters, he confined himself to telling them in his address his objection to him (Mr. Hobhouse.) He was a stranger to the boiough, and had been invited by the Reformers to come forward as a candidate. He at once ac cepted the invitation, but he did not publish his address on his immediate arrival, as he was determined not to go to the poll till he had ascertained whether the principles be pro fessed were in accordance with those of the majority of the electors. This he had satisfactorily ascertained, and should go to the poll with every confidence of a successful termina tion of the contest.—(Cheers.) Upon the subject of the Poor Laws, that measure was supported by all parties— Whigs, Tories, and Radicals. He was not in Parliament at the time it was introduced there, and he disapproved of many of its provisions. He would, however, point their at tention to one single fact. The gentleman who proposed Mr. Canning, was Chairman of a Board appointed by it.— (Cheers.) He again repeated, . that if, upon examina tion of all its provisions, he saw any that were injurious or oppressive to the poor, he should be . equally anxious to an nul them, and stand by the, cause of the people, as wall as his o pponent.—(Cheers.) The .Hon.. Gentleman had said, that he had insulted them, by saying that that was a nomi nation borough.—(Cries of "So it is.") He could assure them that he meant nothing personal. He had come for ward at their bidding; to assist in relieving them from their thraldom. He repeated, he had come there at their bid ding, and at their wish, to assert and vindicate the prin ciples of freedom, and to give them an opportunity of re turning the man of their choice, and prevent any unconstitu tional interference with the freedom of election. If they returned his opponent to Parliament what would they do ? One word more. He had found it impossible for the whole of the electors to give their suffrages freely and fearlessly, without having recourse to vote by ballot. In his canvas of that borough, be had met with forty or fifty eases where he was replied t o , w h en asking for their vote, " My heart i s with you, but I must vote another way." He must soy that he never asked or would receive a vote from any elector who did not give it freely, unbottght, unbiassed by undue influ ence or inti m id at i on. He requested that h i s friends would come early to the poll in the morning ; and he told the in dependent electors of Warwick that the victory was their own.—( Cheers.) The MAYOR having asked, and there being no other candi date to propose, then put the show of hands, which he de clared to be• in favour of Mr. Hobhouse. A poll was demanded on behalf of Mr. Canning, which is appointed to take place to. morrow morning at eight o'clock. A vote of thanks having been given to the Mayor, that gen tleman returned thanks, ana the meeting was adjourned. The candidates subsequently addressed their respective friends from the windows of their hotels. SCENT OF THE DUKE OF BRUNSWICK AND AIRS. GRAHA H.—Yesterday afternoon, his Serene Highness the Duke Charles of Brunswick accompanied Mrs.'Greha m in her 15th ascent, with her splendid new balloon, from the Flora Tea Gardens, Bayswater ; on which octasion the Gardens were crowded by a highly respectable company among whom we noticed the Marquis of Clanricarde, Lords Coventry and C. Townsend, Lord and Lady Char leville, Sir James and Lady Anson, Sir W. Abdy, Colonel Stanhope, Captains Currie, White, and Ogle, and several other persons of rank and fashion. The early hour of two o'clock having, by the especial desire of his Serene High ness, been appointed for the ascent, the process of infla tion commenced as early as eight o'clock, from a four-inch pipe laid into the Gardens from the main of the Imperial Gas Company, but the supply of gas not being so strong as anticipated, the ascent was delayed until near four. About half-past one o'clock, his Serene Highness arrived at the Gardens, accompanied by several gentlemen of his suite and Captain Currie, when, after having examined the balloon, and had the use of the safety-valve, &c., explained to him by Captain Currie and Mr. Graham, he adjourned to the Crown Tavern, close by. His Serene Highness was attended by four servants in livery, carrying an extremely large cloak, a telescope, a scarlet flag, and a large um brella. Shortly after three o'clock the car, which was a new one, built of cane, and lined with yellow silk, was attached to the netting, and at half-past three o'clock, ererything being ready, the - neck of the - balloon was de tached from the gas-pipe, when the stupendous machine was floated to the centre of the Gardens, and the car fas tened to the top of a large table, round whi c h th e company had som e ti me previously ranged themselves. At twenty minutes to four o'clock, Mrs. Graham stepped into the car, followed by his Serene Highness, who at first exhibited slight symptoms of trepidation, but in a few seconds he recovered his self-possession, and ordered the ballast to be removed, which having been done, the balloon rose anajesti c ally amidst the cheers and waving of hats of the persons assembled, who, including the crowd on the outside of the Gardens, must have amounted to upwards of 10,000 per sons. The balloon proceeded very steadily in a north easterly direction, in which it continued as long as it re mained in sight, a period of not more than twenty minutes, when it entered a dense cloud, which totally obscured it. When the 'balloon had reached the altitude of about an hundred yards, the Duke, who had placed in the car the articles brought by his servants, pulled off his round hat, which he threw to his footman on terra firma, and replaced it by an opera hat. He had also with him a splendid vel vet cap, embroidered with gold. The descent was ex pected to take place in the neighbourhood of Walthamstow, Essex, in which direction Mr. Graham immediately pro ceeded in a post-chaise. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. At two o'clock the Recorder entered the New Court, attended by the Sheriffs, Sir Chapman Marshall, and other municipal gentlemen, in order for pass sentence upon the prisoners who have been convicted and not received judg ment during the session. The Court was crowded to ex cess during the four hours the judgment -seat was occupied. To be Transported for Life—Joseph Triggs, John Ward, Charles Cook, Alfred Lofty, William Norris, James Dunn, William Parsley, Charles Watson, Edward Spittle, and John Eustace. In addressing this class of convicts, the RECORDER ad verted to some of their offences, and observed, that some of them, until lately, were deemed of that turpitude that the forfeiture of life was almost the certain penalty. Among them was that of coining of base similitudes of current money, the result of which offence generally pressed hard upon the poor ; but for ingenuity being em ployed in the fabrication, there would not be so many titterers. With respect to the case of Alfred Lofty, one of the group, he being a person of tender age, it was not, he was sure, the intention of Government to enforce it to its full extent, but the period of his detention would entirely depend on his future behaviour. There were, however, those among them who could not expect such consolatory remarks—they must inevitably be removed (perhaps for ever) from their native country, the land of their education, and the abode of their friends ; and in order to impress those who might be at present spectators, he would remark, that those whom he addressed must (except in cases of illness) undergo at least eight years of unremit ting hard labour, the Governor of the Colony having no power to remit without the order or intervention of the Secretary of State for the Home Department. Having made these remarks, the Recorder said, that painful as their case was, every thing in future depended upon, their previous habits and character, their conduct on their voyage, and lastly, their deportment when they at rived at the colony to which they were destined. Several of the convicts wept bitterly, and the pathetic manner in which the Recorder addressed them, caused what ever ought to be observed—a solemn reverence—in a Court of Justice. Transported for Fourteen Years.—Thomas Brown, Henry Williams, Edward Fleetwood, John Williams, Ed mund Kell, Margaret Smith (29), James Elliott, John Hater, Margaret Smith (IS), Thomas Curry, Robert All pin, Thomas Tutch, Thomas Wheeler, James Sanders, William Owen, and John Pilgrim. Sanders, Elliot, and Owen, were told that they would either be sent to the boys' ship or to the Penitentiary, and their continuance there would mainly depend upon their good behaviour. Their tender age, and other causes, would induce Government not to baniSh them if they 'behaved well. It may be as well to remark, once for all, that the Court informed the females that if they were already quali fied, or rendered themselves so hereafter, to fill stations as domestic servants, the adjunct of hard labour in its se verest sense would never 'be experienced. Transported for Seven Years.—Dennis Connor, Mary Figgins, William Wilde, James Murray, William Parrier, Charles Jones, Joseph Benge, James Powell, Samuel Blackley, John Crow, Margaret Neville, George Tebbutt, Mary James, John Thomas, Daniel Donovan, Stephen Beedham, George Berry, John Longshaw, William Hall, William Chapman, William Worthy, John Biggs, William Morris, Phoebe Adams, Henry Hanson, William Bellamy, John Spencer, John Grady, William Home, Catherine Neale, Nerah Grady, William Harvey, Ireland P. Bell, Mary A. Foster, William Hall, John Newton, Ellen Her ring, William Godfrey, Mary A. Clarke, Daniel Horrigan, William George, Thomas Chatterees, James Barron, Mary Atterwell, Thomas Gurry, Thomas Williams, John Wool ley, Charles Cooper, 'John Wilson, Thomas Foreman, Charles Henson, W. Butterworth, Ann Williams, Ann Chester, John Jones, (19), Jeremiah Seanbury, Sarah Ash, James Slater, and Ann Haynes. This numerous class of convicts were addressed in a simi lar manner as those who had been sentenced to banish ment for more extended periods, and his Lordship took oc casion to remark, that all male convicts, by a very recent order of Government, who down to a certain period had sustained a good character, and being under 17 years of ag e, would be otherwise disposed o f th an a voyage to th e colonies. The Learned Judge made some very pointed remarks to Phcabe Adams, who was transported for concealing the birth of her child. A person applied on behalf of Ellen Herring, and said he was known by Lord H o ll an d, and therefore he hoped that he should obtain a h ear i ng . He had reason to ,believ e that the prisoner wa s qu it e innocent of stealing the trowser s . u s s ur a e p t p l: The RECORDER requested that he would not talk iecya applicant, meet with non sense—the Jury had found her guilty, and from the depo sitions and the shorthand writer's notes, the Court thought the verdict was a proper one. If, however, he could lay and he knows me, and I am sure he will any favourable circumstances before Lord John Russell, 7 lo h q e ua " c 'a io s humane attention. I know Lord what I want.

The following were ordered to be kept to hard labour for t h e periods set against their respective names • For Two Years—Henry Knight and Henry . Batho. Joh V n er ß y ul v s e e i l l i well, The RECORDER said their offence was so horrible that he could not defile the ears of the Court by Pv e n alluding to it. For Eighte en Months--Thomas ThCarthy, John Carthy, and Thomas Marsh. For One year—G eorge Alb erry, Willi am B rown, W. ii awkins, W. Smith, W. Thompson, Joseph Charles Prior, and Stanhope Armfield. For Nine Months—Joseph Kearslev, James Rogers, Thomas Devine, George Turner, and Susan Denton. i For Six Months—Thomas Jones (29), Catharine Cal laghan, Thomas Bagley, John i Drver, Samuel Payne, Francis Rogers, W.

Constable, Catherine Mills, Martha Dodd, Matthew Lloyd (16), William Hamilton, Elizabeth Colling worth, Richard Holland, Charlotte Slater, and Richard Hollis. For Four Months—W. Matthews and Elizabeth Marren. CHESTER, Ace. 20. Louisa Plant, aged 17, and T. Birchcnough, aged 22, were indicted for the wilful murder of Edward Plant, an in fant. The female was a pretty black-haired girl, and was very neatly attired. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL and Mr. TOWNSEND appeared for the proSecution. - Mr. R. G. TEMPLE, Mr. COTTINGHAM, and Mr. DUNN, defended the prisoners. The prisoners resided at Sutton, near Macclesfield. The child with whose murder the prisoners were charred, was the result of an illicit connection between them, and it was to the female prisoner an object of great anxiety, on ac count of the man refusing to contribute to its support. It was proved by several witnesses that when the female pri soner asked the man for money, he beat her and treated her in a very cruel manner. On some of those occasions, after Birchenough had left the house, the female pri soner had been observed to take up the child, and, sit ting with it on her knee, exclaim, " I have nothing but. trouble of mind ; if the Lord would take my baby, never, never would I go in that man's company any more. If it had only a pennyworth of arsenic, it would be gone." After that, the witnesses said, she went to bed, lamenting very much. At another time she said to Mrs. Burrowes, the person with whom she lodged, that she had seen a girl who had a child which was very poorly, and who told her that if she nould give her child what the girl had given to her's, she would soon get rid of it. On the 13th of April, when the female prisoner came home, she took up the child and sat down with it in a chair. She then took the child up stairs: and was absent about two minutes. When she came down the child was sick. Mrs. Burrowes asked her what she had been doing to her child, and she said " Nothing." Mrs. Burrowes then examined the child's head, and observed that its upper lip was co vered With a white powder. She looked at it, and taking some on her fingers, exclaimed, "My God ! my God ! cousin, whet hest thou been doing ?—what hast thou given it ?" She said " Nothing." The child continued sick during the afternoon, and died at seven o'clock in the evening. The usual tests were applied to the stomach and bowels after death, and white arsenic was discovered. The next branch of evidence which was entered into proved that on the evening of the 2d of April the prisoners were observed together in Macclesfield. Birchenough was seen to hand something to Plant, and immediately after wards she went into the shop of Mr. Harrop, a druggist, and asked fur a pennyworth of arsenic. Birchenough was observed to wait in the street while she went into Mr. Harrop's shop, and when she came out she joined Birche nough, and handed him the parcel. On the 14th the female prisoner was taken into custody, and, when placed in the lock-up, she appeared to be in great distress, and exclaimed, " Oh, my child, my child,. what have I done !" Afterwards she confessed to the officer that she did give the child something, and she said that Birchenough told her that if she did not give the child something he would stick a knife into her. She afterwards confessed having bought the arsenic at. Mr. Harrop's shop, and that Birchenough gave her the penny to buy it. with ; that he stood at the corner for her, and she aftertvardsgave him the paper. A witness also proved that when Birchenough was in the lock-up, he admitted knowing of the purchase of the arsenic. The prisoners, when called upon for their defence, de clined saying anything. Soros witnesses were called to prove that the witnesses for the prosecution had perjured themselves, and that the prisoners were at other places than those at the time stated. The Jury, after consulting about an hour, found Louisa Plant guilty of murder, and Birchenough guilty as an ac cessory. They believed that he was with her when she purchased the poison. Lord DENMAN said that, under the circumstances, that was a verdict of acquittal in favour of Birchenough ; there was, however, another indictment en which he should be tried. The prisoners were then again placed at the bar. Louisa Plant was charged with the murder, and Birchenough with being an accessory before the fact. Mr. COTTINGHAM submitted to the Court, that as Birch enough had been acquitted of being a principal, aiding and . assisting Louisa Plant in committing the murder, and as the jury had negatived that averment by finding a verdict of not guilty, the prisoner could not now be tried us an acces sory before the fact, as the first offence of his being a prin cipal included his being an accessory before the fact. In support of the objection he cited the authority 1 Hale, 626. The learned gentleman also said it was his intention, on the part of the prisoner, to put in the plea antic fois acquit. Mr. DUNN also urged the same line of argument. Lord DENMAN overruled the plea, but said, in deference to the opinion of Lord Hale, he should reserve the point for the consideration of the judges. The case then proceeded, and Louisa Plant was per mitted to retire, she having been before convicted. The evidence adduced was the same as that given on the former r.l Ile Jury, after a short consultation, returned a verdict of Guilty. Lord DENMAN then ordered sentence of death to be re corded against the female prisoner, but said that under the circumstances, and in consideration of the strong recom mendation of the Jury, considering; her youth, and the un fortunate connection which she had formed, he should not pronounce sentence of death upon her, but have the sen tence recorded, and recommend the Crown to commute the punishment. His LORDSHIP then proceeded to pass sentence on Birchenough, and observed that he did not recollect a case in which a man had displayed such meanness in refusing to support his offspring, combined with such cruelty in treating so young a woman with unkindness even to violence, and accompanying that by giving her the means to purchase that deadly poison by which she was .to violate every feeling of a mother. It was impossible, nor could the prisoner expect, that his life should be spared, and he entreated him to make the most of his time to make his peace with God, whom he had so highly offended. It was right, however, that he should mention, that in conse quence of an objection which had arisen on a point of law, the execution of the prisoner would be . delayed ; not that h e (Lord Denman). had any doubt of the prisoner's guilt, for none existed on his mind ; but in deference to so high an authority as Lord Hale, he should not feel justified in ordering immediate execution without taking the opinion of the Judges. The prisoner would, therefore, have his life spared a considerable time, but he was not to let that delay lead to hardness of heart, for he was firmly persuaded that there would be only a delay, as it was fit that some more discussion should take place. The sentence of the Court was, that the prisoner should be hanged by the neck till he was dead, and that his body should then be buried within the precincts of the prison, and may God have mercy on his soul. The prisoner, with tears in his eyes, said, " And God will have mercy on me for what I know about it." He was pro ceeding to make some other observations, when he was led away by the officers.
